Appraisal
An appealing modest-scale house built as one of a terrace of three related units (with 12003006 - 7/KK-4766-03-06 - 7) forming an attractive assemblage in a quiet lane. Incorporating pleasing proportions the architectural design value of the house is embellished by simple rendered dressings while the retention of substantial quantities of the historic fabric maintaining the integrity of the composition ensures the positive impression made on character of the streetscape of Loretto (sic.) View.
